Getting Lit

Yeah, great title. and no, i haven't been lit for ages and ages. except in the following legal ways,
read a couple of wonderful books .
Help by so and so... the characters really stick with you. you care for them and there is no very great trauma to have to get through except womanly ones... , so you will cry but you don't have to rip your own heart out.
Garner by another so and so which is really spectacular. really . very new england wintery but the writing is just wonderful. i keep thinking dappled sunlight and wispy fog amongst trees and oh brother, there's even a dead body, and the mystery of what happened but my goodness, the writing...
wish I could give you more ..
i'm going to hang more christmas lights to try and cheer myself out of believing winter will never end.
the house is already glowing.
